4-20ma is an industry standard for signalling in a process monitoring and control environment. 4ma is one end of the range. 20ma is the other. If the receiver sensed 0ma, it would conclude that the circuit is open, and raise an appropriate alarm.

How does limit switch work using plc?

A "Programmable Logic Controller" can have a switch to either tell the machine when it has reached a certain position at or near the limit of its travel, or a switch that over-rides the maximum or minimum programmed limits for safety. The mechanics can be electrical, laser, pneumatic, or any type that is reliable for the device.

Why latching current is more than holding current in thyristor?

Holding current is a kind of Imin i.e., a minimum rating current which should not be decreased less than this limit so that SCR will be off(Maximum limit).Whereas latching current is again a limit which is Imini.e., a minimum current that should be there to make it on(Minimum limit).So obviously Holding current is more than latching current.If u still have the confusion go through the link below ALi RAZA


How do resistors limit the flow of current in a circuit?

Resistors limit the flow of current in a circuit by impeding the movement of electrons, causing a drop in voltage and reducing the overall current passing through the circuit.


What does not limit current flow in a circuit - capacitance - high conductor resistance or longer conductor?

Of the three choices, capacitance does not limit current flow in an AC circuit.
